Want to burn calories but not a huge fan of exercise? We found a website that might have the solution. Start out small by implementing these fun calories burners that you probably do on a daily basis...especially if you're a rock star!
Play the Drums
Playing the drums involves careful coordination of the feet, hands and arms. You may play both fast and slow paced rhythms, and exert force and pressure on different types of drums and cymbals throughout the sequence. This can be a high calorie burning activity depending on the pace of movement--it's also a lot of fun! Burns 263 calories per hour
Load and Unload the Car
Loading and unloading a car can be a mild to moderate aerobic activity; the weight of the objects you are lifting and carrying serve as resistance, and challenge your shoulders, back, abdominals and arm muscles as you balance each item. Heavier objects such as groceries, bags of clothing or even small children require more energy and will burn more calories. Burns 197 calories per hour
Dance
Line dancing is a fast-paced dance routine that can burn hundreds of calories per hour! The movements are choreographed to medium to fast-paced music, and require steps such as the grapevine, square step, and even jumping and skipping. Line dancing is a fun aerobic routine for all age groups and fitness levels. Burns 296 calories per hour
